ACTION!”5. “You’ll shoot your eye out kid!”6. “Can I refill your eggnog for you? Get you something to eat?

Elves with attitude.”10. “Christmas carolers! I hate ’em. They’re all just a bunch of glue sniffers.”11. “Unless we make Christmas an occasion to share our blessings, all the snow in Alaska won’t make it white.”12. “Fra-Gee-Lay!

Merry Christmas, you wonderful old Building and Loan!”15. “Let’s see, we’ve got a munkle for your uncle, a fant for your aunt, and a fandpa for our cousin Leon.”16. “The best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear.”17. “I’m from the south side of the North Pole man.”18. “You say you hate Washington’s birthday or Thanksgiving and nobody cares, but you say you hate Christmas and people treat you like you’re a leper.”19. “I gotta tell you, Santa, there’s something about this place that doesn’t seem quote … Kosher.”20. “There’s children throwing snowballs, instead of throwing heads.
